He’s probably a Christian.
Via Merced Sun Star:
The UC Merced student who wounded four people in a stabbing spree at the campus has been identified as Faisal Mohammad, a freshman student from Santa Clara.
Merced Couty Sheriff Vern Warnke confirmed the identity of the 18-year-old student to the Sun-Star early Thursday.
Mohammad was shot and killed by UC Merced police just after 8 a.m. on Wednesday morning as he ran from the two-story classroom building where investigators said his violent spree began.
Warnke said investigators, including the FBI, were still trying to determine the motive for Mohammad’s attack, which wounded two students, a female student advisor and a construction worker who was on campus for a remodeling project. The four suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
Update:
Mohammad was ‘anti-social’, smiled while he stabbed people and may have had a bomb.
Via Daily Mail:
A student who ‘smiled’ as he stabbed four people inside a classroom at the University of California, Merced, before he was killed by police has been identified.
Faisal Mohammad, a freshman from Santa Clara who majored in computer science and engineering, was shot dead by officers after his violent campus rampage on Wednesday morning.
The 18-year-old, described as antisocial by his roommate, was supposedly ‘having fun’ as he lunged at his classmates with a hunting knife before a construction worker thwarted the attack.
Police are still investigating the contents of a backpack he was carrying at the time, while a witness said a bomb squad detonated something near the scene.
Update:
Gee, wonder why it took so long to give the name of the attacker out to the media? Hmm…
